Moleskin:  During this season of Advent, let us be like John the Baptist and prepare the way for birth of Jesus through repentance.  It’s easy to jump the gun with Christmas presents, lights, gifts, carols, etc.  Heck, I just did it with the 12 days of Christmas Q!   Next year, I’ll do an Advent themed workout (locusts, camel hair, etc.)  In the meantime, let’s reflect on what we need to do to get right so we’re ready for the big day.

Prayer Requests:  Debra, Poacher’s sister-in-law, who is battling lung cancer.  Amanda and Homer, Meat Sweat’s friends from church, who are expecting their fourth child today.

Announcements:  Week 5 of Mentorship is Wednesday at 6:15 am on Zoom.  F3 lunch at Roast https://www.roastnc.com/ on Thursday. 

Aye!
